Wow, one Latvian town is on sale for some 323 thousand dollars…
You can pay by instalments for ten years for a small town with 70 different houses and buildings, among which there are ten residential buildings with 551 apartments, hotel, clinic, hospital, kindergarten, club, post office, boiler house, water tower, garages plus underground bunkers and shelters in case of nuclear war.
The authorities of Latvia decided to take this step because of the hard consequences of the global financial crisis.
So, would anyone like to buy it? ;))
Let’s take a look at the pictures of the town after the jump.

The Blond Day took place on 31 May in Riga, Latvia. The organizers of the parade want to ask UNESCO to declare officially May 31 as the International Blond Day. The dress code was strict: red, pink and white :)
